What type of white paint is used on the Buick Excelle?
2 Answers
Buick Excelle uses standard white paint for its white color option. Introduction to metallic paint: Virtually all white automotive paints are non-metallic, or they incorporate pearl powder to achieve a pearl white finish. Whether a paint is metallic can be easily identified visually. Metallic paint contains fine aluminum particles in its base. When light hits these particles, it reflects back through the paint film. Exterior design: The Excelle features Buick's signature wing-shaped front grille with chrome accents. The new model comes equipped with matrix-style headlights incorporating LED light sources. A character line runs from the headlights to the taillights along the body side, elongating the vehicle's profile.
I've been driving my Buick Excelle for over three years now, and the white paint is what they call pearl white. Not to brag, but it's especially shiny in the sunlight with a bit of a pearlescent effect, making it more stylish than regular white. I mostly drive in the city, and this paint does a decent job at resisting dirt. Even when driving on muddy roads in the rain, it doesn't get dull instantly, and it's easy to clean—just use a neutral detergent when washing. The downside is that it's prone to scratches. I recommend waxing it once a week to prevent scratches. It might be a bit pricey when the car is new, but it's worth it in the long run. Buick's paint quality is stable, with few fading issues, and it maintains its shine for at least five years. Before choosing it, I saw many recommendations for this white color on forums, and I truly have no regrets.
